Solution

The correct option is A

True


When the earthquake occurs inside the ocean, it leads to the large displacement of water in a very short period and this leads to the birth of high waves and these high waves are termed as Tsunami.
But a Tsunami does not cause an earthquake as it is a surface phenomenon.
